Thank you to everyone who has family in Boston and who have taken the time to let us know on this board that their loved ones are OK. I don't know any of you, but all of you reporting loved ones who are safe are giving me one shred of light in a day filled with dark and evil. Such good news to hear that they're safe, and thank you again.

Maybe if the imbecile in charge of Homeland Security, and the dolt we have as Attorney General, not to mention our boob of a President would stop eyeballing law abiding americans as the enemy and actually maintain the borders, prosecute terrorists, we'd have a little more security.

This is typical so that they can control air space over the incident and keep news helicopters from flying into each other by accident. It has been known to happen in the past.

They've changed that then--earlier they said it was a mechanical fire there.
